Waterway has access to:

The
waterway from the Polish capital to the wilderness of north east Poland
Since the Debe
hydroelectric power station has been built; it is unfortunately not possible
anymore to navigate on the Narew from its mouth.
Skippers reach the ZegrzeLake from Warsaw over the Zeranski
canal. It connects the Weichsel with the “home lake” of Warsaw, the Zalew
Zegrzynki. Some Marinas and services are
around there. The last ones for a long time! Having left the lake on its
northern feeder, one can find something like a harbour after about 180 km on the
river, at Ostroleka and then again after another 200 km at Augustow.

Travelling
on the Narew is a journey to the past. Surroundings of the lakeZegrzynski are more or less agriculturally used but east of Nowogrod at the latest, one
finds oneself in an endless seeming heath and fen area, the Bialowieza natural
park. Apart of some wolfs, elks and other animals, one is all of one’s own. The
heath of Bialowieza is to be regarded as the last lowland primeval forest.

This navigation
demands next to some courage a very careful preparation!
